We had to go to Blarney, and to the Blarney Castle to kiss the Blarney Stone. Kissing it is said to give you the 'Gift of Elequence' (Gab). Miranda, Ron, Steve and Johnny, in order, kissing the Blarney Stone.
The next three rows are us exploring the Blarney Castle grounds, including the Poison Garden.
Blarney Stone is at top above the 2 windows.
